Patent attributes
A lens positioning device including a lens carrier, a housing, three pairs of memory alloy wires and three displacement detecting units is provided. The three pairs of memory alloy wires are used to control the displacement of the lens carrier in three directions, respectively. Each of the displacement detecting units includes a magnetic element and a magnetic field sensing element. The magnetic field sensing element is arranged corresponding to the magnetic element to sense change of the magnetic field of the magnetic element along each of the three directions when the lens carrier moves. One magnetic element of any one of the three displacement detecting units is arranged at a position that can induce the corresponding magnetic field sensing element and does not interfere with the magnetic field sensing elements of the other two of the three displacement detecting units.
